Today oil-production requires more than just standard ESP equipment. We see certain complications in well conditions, economical situation and competitive sphere. That is why there is a high demand in equipment for operation in deviated wells with high H2S, solids and free gas content. At the end ESP with better efficiency characteristics helps increase oil production rate.

Novomet has been manufacturing complete ESP systems since 2002. In 2010 the company launched production of new Power Safe ESPs which allow to save up to 25% of energy consumption. The system is completed with highly economical permanent magnet motor and power safe pump. Such ESP shows reduction of thermal losses in cable, VSD and transformer by means of consumption current reduction.

How can we select equipment for a certain well? How do we analyze current ESP operation? What is the way to forecast future changes in ESP operation? How do we analyze ESP reliability with the help of operating data? These are the most common questions oil production companies come across.
In order to find the answers to all questions Novomet engineers developed various software programs.

Scale deposition is a frequent cause of ESP failures. Novomet has approached this problem with our own innovative solutions:

Scale Preventer

Benefits:

One of the most efficient ways of keeping wells healthy from scale deposition.

Cost-effective, in comparison with other scale prevention techniques.

Easy to install, does not require additional tools or manpower.

Includes sizing software designed to ensure complete match of equipment to application conditions.

Novomet has developed a downhole unit for dosing scale-inhibiting compositions as a solution for treating formation fluids to prevent non-organic scale depositions on ESP impellers and diffusers. We offer two types of units for solid and liquid scale inhibitors.

For solid inhibitors, tubes are filled with solid scale inhibitor and a calibrated port is installed at the bottom of the tube. During ESP operation formation fluid flows into the downhole unit through perforations, the solid scale inhibitor is dissolved and gets mixed with the formation fluid. The dissolved inhibitor molecules are absorbed on crystal-forming nuclei, thus preventing their growth and deposition on ESP impellers, diffusers, and equipment surface.

For liquid inhibitors, the unit includes a tube filled with encapsulated liquid scale inhibitor and a metering port. The number of sections is sized according to the well flow rate.

Encapsulated liquid scale inhibitor is a complex of inhibitor-filled capsules made of polymeric semipermeable membranes, size 50-100 mkm. The formation fluid flows through the metering port into the unit, enters the capsules, dissolves the inhibitor and flows out. The dissolved inhibitor leaves the unit through the metering port and goes to the pump intake. In the tubing inhibitor, molecules are absorbed on crystal forming nuclei, thus preventing their growth and deposition on ESP impellers, diffusers, and equipment surfaces.

Novomet scale preventer is an integral solution involving several aspects

Step 1 – Analysis

Analysis of well conditions: flow rate, fluid properties, water cut, temperature, averagerun time and target run time.
